"This is inexcusable."

Update: Louis C.K.’s collaborator Pamela Adlon released a statement on November 10, which read, “Hi. I’m here. I have to say something. It’s so important. My family and I are devastated and in shock after the admission of abhorrent behavior by my friend and partner, Louis C.K. I feel deep sorrow and empathy for the women who have come forward. I am asking for privacy at this time for myself and my family. I am processing and grieving and hope to say more as soon as I am able.”

Louis C.K. is the latest entertainment figure to be accused of sexual misconduct, with several women telling the New York Times that the actor, comedian, and filmmaker masturbated in front of them. The premiere of C.K.’s new movie “I Love You, Daddy” was canceled in advance of the NYT story, as was his appearance on “The Late Show With Stephen Colbert.” Several have already reacted on social media:

I was told to delete a tweet I wrote about Louis CK abusing women before I applied to a high-profile comedy job because the people conducting the hiring process might not like it. These women who have spoken up are brave, and we owe them so much.https://t.co/yECc41l1Uz
